Leise T, Harrington M, Molyneux P, Song I, Queenan H, Zimmerman E, et al.
Age (Dordr) . 2013 Jan; 35(6):2137-52. PMID: 23340916
Consistent daily rhythms are important to healthy aging according to studies linking disrupted circadian rhythms with negative health impacts. We studied the effects of age and exercise on baseline circadian...

Castillo C, Molyneux P, Carlson R, Harrington M
Neuroscience . 2011 Mar; 182:169-76. PMID: 21392557
Circadian rhythms are physiological and behavioral oscillations that have period lengths of approximately 24 h. In mammals, circadian rhythms are driven by a master pacemaker in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus...

Guenthner C, Bickar D, Harrington M
Neuroscience . 2009 Aug; 164(2):832-41. PMID: 19698763
The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which in mammals serves as the master circadian pacemaker by synchronizing autonomous clocks in peripheral tissues, is composed of coupled single-cell oscillators that are driven...
4.
Kessler E, Sprouse J, Harrington M
Neuroscience . 2008 Jun; 154(4):1187-94. PMID: 18538936
Health problems can arise from de-synchrony between the external environment and the endogenous circadian rhythm, yet the circadian system is not able to quickly adjust to large, abrupt changes in...

Chansard M, Molyneux P, Nomura K, Harrington M, Fukuhara C
Neuroscience . 2007 Feb; 145(3):812-23. PMID: 17270352
Circadian rhythms are endogenous cycles with periods close to, but not exactly equal to, 24 h. In mammals, circadian rhythms are generated in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus...

Lall G, Harrington M
Neuroscience . 2006 Jun; 141(3):1545-52. PMID: 16750888
Circadian rhythms are entrained by light/dark cycles. In hamsters, the effects of light on circadian rhythms can be modulated by serotonergic input to the suprachiasmatic nucleus from the raphe nuclei...

Harrington M, Zavatsky A, Lawson S, Yuan Z, Theologis T
J Biomech . 2006 Apr; 40(3):595-602. PMID: 16584737
The location of the hip joint centre (HJC) is required for calculations of hip moments, the location and orientation of the femur, and muscle lengths and lever arms. In clinical...

Stebbins J, Harrington M, Giacomozzi C, Thompson N, Zavatsky A, Theologis T
Gait Posture . 2005 Nov; 22(4):372-6. PMID: 16274921
Methods for the measurement of plantar pressure are poorly defined particularly when describing sub-sections of the plantar surface of the foot in the presence of deformity. The aim of this...

Yannielli P, Harrington M
Prog Neurobiol . 2004 Sep; 74(1):59-76. PMID: 15381317
Circadian rhythms are internally generated circa 24 h rhythms. The phase of the circadian pacemaker in mammals can be adjusted by external stimuli such as the daily cycle of light,...

Yannielli P, Brewer J, Harrington M
Eur J Neurosci . 2004 Mar; 19(4):891-7. PMID: 15009136
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is delivered to the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) circadian pacemaker via an input from the thalamic intergeniculate leaflet. NPY can inhibit light-induced responses of the circadian system of...
